This blog started as a place to bring objectivity, quantitative analysis, and science to green living, but has evolved to focus more on my research, with some cool science stories mixed in. I reserve the right to write about anything that fascinates me. I'm a senior conservation scientist for The Nature Conservancy, but content posted here is my own. I tweet at @sciencejon and my bio is at https://www.nature.org/science-in-action/our-scientists/jon-fisher.xml

The discovery of some funny-looking unsprayed apples at the farmer's market recently (which I'd never had before) inspired me to write a blog post about them. The basic question is: if we can get so excited about funny-looking heirloom varieties, can we make unsprayed produce "cool" as well?http://blog.nature.org/science/2013/09/20/ugly-produce/
